Default 10/20NL stars KK Problem

I have been playing pretty LAG and the opponents Xianze and Sublime8700. Xianze seems (lag & tricky) does that make any sense?? He has pulled off some crazy bluffs and had good hands at times too. Sublime was a victim of Xianze's mega bluff and has been playing tight.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $20 BB (5 handed) converter

saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

Hero/BB ($6583.20)
UTG ($2632)
MP ($2448)
Button ($2766)
SB ($7216.50)

Preflop: is with , .
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $80</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB calls $70, <font color="#CC3333"> raises to $300</font>, UTG calls $220, SB calls $220.

Flop: ($900) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $600</font>, SB folds, i ????

I checked the flop because xiang and i have pretty deep stacks and didnt want to have to get AI with him having any 2 cards. Sublime i felt like he had a pretty solid hand. Still i am not sure what is the right play after i messed up the flop by not leading.

I'm assuming Sublime is UTG. If so it smells like AJ or a draw. AQ/AK diamonds or KQs. Your check on the flop makes the villains range very wide for raising. At this point I think you just have to eat it if he flopped a set.

Reraise and price yourself in because he'll probably shove with a draw.

This seems like horrible advice. I think you probably should have led the flop. As played, call and lead a safe looking turn card.

UTG now has $1,700 back in a $1,200 pot. What are you going to lead for on the turn that he'll fold a draw; but call with a weaker hand that pot commits him?

Oh sorry sorry! I thought UTG had the 7k stack. Disregard my post.

yeah i think leading was best play, if UTG goes all in call right? what is standard lead bet? if UTG just calls push safe card on turn?

i pushed after SB folded and UTG called.

Standard c-bet seems fine. Whatever you might bet if you'd missed with AK.
